Have had thoughts of swapping my '69 off-white front bench seat for a pair of black buckets from a '68 and a replacement black rear bench from a '72. Would these just bolt in or would modifications be necessary?

Thanks!

You need different seat mounts/slides going from bench to buckets. But the back seat should be a straight across swap as long as the donor is not a vert.

Cool, thanks Allan.

Hi,

The '68 seats will bolt in (after installing bucket seat mounts), but the seatback release is different than that on '69-'72 buckets. Also difficult to add headrests if you want them to the '68 seats.

I would be interested in buying your front bench seat if you decide to do the conversion. I'm looking for one i can recover for my 68 Cutlass

The 71/72 bench seatbacks are a slightly different shape & internal design than the earlier ones- may be difficult to install the early covers on the two seatback peices.

Look for one that comes from a 70 or earlier car, and the 68 covers will install w/o a problem.

Thanks for answering my question before i asked it!! So you say a 70 bench is same for 68 and 68 seat covers will fit on it? Great to hear because I think i have located a 70 seat! Thanks again!!
